Indian Farmers Clash with Police

Farmers in India, seeking better crop prices and payment security, faced police intervention as their fourth negotiation round with the government yielded no results. Attempting to march to New Delhi, farmers clashed with police at the Shambhu border, using bulldozers to break barricades. Police responded with pepper gas, leading farmers to resist with masks and deploy kites to deter unmanned aerial vehicles. Minister of Agriculture Arjun Munde called for a fifth meeting, emphasizing the importance of maintaining peace. The farmers’ unions are pushing for legal guarantees on crop support and guaranteed prices, with four rounds of talks held with the government thus far.
